5 tbsp natural peanut butter (chunky or smooth)
1/2 cup dry oat meal or whole grain hot cereal (uncooked)

6 scoops chocolate whey protein (approximately 132 grams worth of low-carb
protein powder)
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons flax seeds (optional)
1 cup non-fat dry milk
1/2 cup water (depending on what type of protein you use, you may need to
add more)
Modifications: Use vanilla protein and replace ~1/4 cup of the oatflour with
a variety of nuts, seeds, or dried berries.
Preparation:
Spray an 8x8 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Combine dry
ingredients in a medium size bowl and mix well. Add peanut butter and mix -
the mixture will be crumbly and dry. Add water & vanilla. Sponsored Links
